Hemodynamic effect of Neuroform stent on intimal hyperplasia and thrombus formation in a carotid aneurysm by Jou, Liang-Der

“…An 8 mm cavernous carotid aneurysm with a wide neck was treated by a Neuroform stent first and by coils five weeks later. A comparison of the difference in morphology during this five-week period reveals the presence of intimal hyperplasia in the internal carotid artery, 1.3 mm thick at the proximal end and 1 mm at the distal end of the stent, and 1 mm thick thrombus at the postero-inferior side of the aneurysm. …”

The mechanism of action of kefir and its effect on the motility of breast and colorectal cancer cells. (c2013) by Khoury, Nathalie El

“…In this study, we aim to determine a possible mechanism of action of kefir and to study its effect on the motility of colorectal and breast cancer cell lines. Results from the reverse-transcription PCR experiment have shown that kefir decreases the expression of TGF-α and TGF-β1 in HT-29 cells in a dose dependent manner. …”
